Hello all ! So how did the weekend went, must be good ! These two days are like the extra hours we needed from other five days. What if it would have been 5 days with ~5hrs each day. Still we would have been short of time, isn't it. Time is indeed like the river ever flowing, you will exploit it, there will be floods or you build dam, control it, channelize it be then more resourceful ! What say ?
Coming back to the point, today I wish to share my yesterday's experience : Yesterday, me and my family decided to watch a movie ! We always watch together and generally prefer a non - violent , simple blockbuster movies. We watch, laugh, see songs, dances, praise acting and a bit emotional few fights. Thats it ! .So, that you watch and sleep happily without using or should I say - OVER using your brain. [check out my another blog post -Are you over using your brain !]
BUT, yesterday we decided to deviate from the routine and watch movie "NH 10", a brilliant Bollywood movie starring an amazing bollywood actress- Ms. Anushka Sharma, and to set things different, we choose a violent movie.
You know why ? To learn. To be aware of the surroundings. The facts which we just hear ! And certain situations in which God forbid if we get into , we should be knowing what can we do ! What's your take on it ?
Let me tell you a little about the story, its telling about the Gen X highly placed couple, who take a two day leave for a road trip. The place where they are heading to is in a state which is still following ill customs of societies. There they accidentally see an honor killing . The story then heads about the girl who runs to get help , but finds more trapped and helpless. Here's the trailer !
Though, its a movie but we actually learn a lot. A lot about the surrounding happenings. Reading news about psychopaths and criminals is different then actually getting into such situation.
I am really not saying to go and watch every criminal movies. It installs negativity only. But, you can spare once a while time to learn. To get aware of the social conditions prevailing around. And, how we can combat it.

| Be aware |
Example - Watching SAW is ugly ! ( my personnel observation ) but watching Taken will actually help.
We tend to have have mock drills for natural calamities in school and college. Why ? Simply, because ITS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY ! Its very essential and simple. We don't know what might happen. For, that we have to be prepared. And how we will be prepared if we are not even aware. And, how do we get aware ? Well, now you know LEARN.
Get the wisdom through entertainment !
So, people stay aware not about yourself but your surrounding too! Be aware, whats happening in your locality, report suspicious observations. Its not just a duty but a right of every individual towards self and others as well. Not just movies, books, newspapers, radio. There are lot of sources.
I would love to know your thoughts upon it !. Do you think, we are ever ready for all situations ! Are you. Any experience which was a learning point in your life ! Do share. :)
Have a great day. Rise and shine !
Lets make world a better world. And, yes how can we forget Malala Yousafzai !!!

Bingo, now you get it ! Stay safe always.
Rise and shine :)
